Seven days later, mighty cultivators gathered in Emperor Xia's Palace.
Forces from all over Emperor Xia's Realm gathered, and the lineup was extremely strong. Of course, in addition to the forces directly under Emperor Xia, many of the top forces of Emperor Xia's Realm came voluntarily, and many other major forces did not participate, such as the swordsmen of Lihen Heaven who did not participate.
Divine Cloud Valley and the Xiao clan had the most cultivators. After all, their relationship with Emperor Xia was extraordinary, so they naturally followed the emperor's footsteps. Even though Emperor Xia would not participate in this matter personally, but this time the Princess would personally go to the Empty Realm to participate in the battle, which was already very sensational.
This was the first time the Princess Xia Qingyuan participated in a direct confrontation between the imperial realms, and defeat was not an option.
The Xiao clan was the family of Queen Xiao, and they were all the elders of the Princess Xia Qingyuan. Naturally, they would do their best to support her, and Xiao Sheng would officially enter Emperor Xia's Palace from this battle.
The same was true for Divine Cloud Valley. The Valley Lord of Divine Cloud Valley was an old subordinate of Emperor Xia, and Gongsun Zhong, a third-generation descendant, admired the Princess Xia Qingyuan. Although he did not dare to show it in his heart, he still had extravagant hopes.
Among the forces that came today, the people of the Upper Worlds formed their own camps, and the cultivators of the Nine States formed their own camp.
Ye Futian also arrived, in the camp of the Nine States.
Not only Ye Futian, but also Yaya, the Glass Saint, and the Village Chief were all going this time. The Empty Realm should be suitable for Yaya to cultivate.
Xia Qingyuan stood on the stairs in front of her and looked down. She said, "This time to the Empty Realm, the Nine States' Heaven's Chosen One will be directly under Ye Futian's command."
Hearing this, the saints of the Nine States looked at Xia Qingyuan, secretly thinking that the Princess really valued Ye Futian. She had directly handed over the selected Heaven's Chosen One to Ye Futian's command. But this was also normal. With Ye Futian's current talent and strength, as well as his status and qualifications, he was completely qualified. There was no other suitable candidate besides him.
But it also faintly showed that Xia Qingyuan valued Ye Futian.
The top forces of Emperor Xia's Realm had many mighty ones themselves, and there were many mighty ones who followed them from subordinate forces. They formed their own group, which was naturally led by the most outstanding descendants of the top forces, such as Xiao Sheng, Gongsun Zhong, Xuanyuan Ao, and the others. Now, Ye Futian's group, coupled with the Nine States' Heaven's Chosen Ones, were still lacking in numbers, but they were able to form their own group and stand up to the top forces.
As for the camp of Emperor Xia's Palace led by Xia Qingyuan, there was no need to say much. Moreover, this was not the full strength of the army. Now, there were two armies that had arrived in the Empty Realm.
Not only that, but Emperor Xia also had his own forces in the Empty Realm.
Although the Empty Realm was not as vast as Emperor Xia's Realm, it was still a complete realm.
When the chosen ones of the Nine States heard that they would be ruled by Ye Futian, some people had no objections, but some people had some thoughts. They had thought that they would be following the Princess, but now they were following Ye Futian?
It seemed that Ye Futian had gone even further than them. His relationship with the princess was not ordinary.
"Princess." At that moment, a guard came and bowed to the top of the stairs. "Yao Xi, the Virgin of Yaotai Divine Palace, is here to see you."
"What is she doing here?" Xia Qingyuan's voice was cold. Although Yaotai Divine Palace was also a top force in Emperor Xia's Realm, it was not very close to Emperor Xia's Palace. It was located in a remote place, far away from Emperor Xia's Palace. But recently, Yao Xi seemed to be in this area often, and no one knew what her intentions were.
"She said that she wanted to join the army in the battle," the guard said.
"Let them in," Xia Qingyuan said.
"Yes." The guard bowed and left. Not long after, a group of cultivators from Yaotai Divine Palace came under the leadership of Yao Xi, and in an instant attracted the attention of countless people. After all, the appearance of the goddesses of Yaotai Divine Palace was extremely outstanding, especially Yao Xi, who was like a fairy descending from the heavens, extremely stunning.
"Yao Xi greets the Princess." Yao Xi bowed slightly in greeting. Her figure was graceful, and every move she made was full of beauty, which made people fall for her.
Xia Qingyuan looked at the beautiful fairy figure, and her voice was cold. "Did Yaotai Divine Palace only send cultivators of the Sage Plane?"
"In reply to the Princess, the battle for the Empty Realm is now a battle between those below Saint Plane. If a battle between Saints really breaks out, there will be His Majesty's army. Therefore, Yao Xi only brought sages to participate in the battle, to help the Princess." Yao Xi's voice was still soft, with a wonderful charm. Even Xia Qingyuan, who was also a woman, had to admit that she was a demon. Just the voice alone was charming to the bone, causing ripples in people's hearts.
"When you get to the stewardess, listen to the deployment," Xia Qingyuan said.
"Yes, Princess." Yao Xi nodded.
After saying that, she smiled and walked in a direction to the side, where the people of the Nine States gathered.
Yao Xi's clear and pure eyes had a hint of a smile, which made people's hearts beat faster.
"Lord Ye, we meet again," Yao Xi smiled at Ye Futian.
"Goddess." Ye Futian nodded in return.
When the people of the Nine States saw this scene, they showed strange expressions and looked at Ye Futian speechlessly. Who was this bastard? How was it that in such a short time since he came to the Upper Worlds, the Princess favored him so much, and now such a peerless goddess had come, and the first person she greeted was not the top figures of the Upper Worlds, but him. This …
Not to mention the people of the Nine States, even Ye Futian himself did not understand.
"Recently, there have been rumors in Emperor Xia's Realm that Lord Ye was defeated in the battle of the 33rd Layer of Heaven in Lihen Heaven, but Yao Xi does not believe it. Today, seeing Lord Ye, I would like to ask Lord Ye how was the battle?" Yao Xi smiled. In Emperor Xia's Realm, the rumors said that Ye Futian had been defeated. If it had been someone else asking this question, it would have seemed a little rude. If Ye Futian had really been defeated, it would have seemed more like deliberate humiliation, so no one would have taken the initiative to ask such a question.
But when Yao Xi spoke, no one felt that there was anything wrong with her words and demeanor, and no one thought that it was humiliation. It was as if she really trusted Ye Futian.
In fact, many cultivators of the Upper Worlds also wanted to know the specific situation of the battle, so they all looked at Ye Futian.
"I won, and so did Wang Chuan," Ye Futian said.
In that battle, he had a breakthrough in his state of mind, and his plane had deepened a little. Wang Chuan's state of mind had also changed, and he had transcended into sainthood, passing through the catastrophe of the Divine Path.
Therefore, there were no losers. They all won.
If it had not been for what happened in the 33rd Layer of Heaven, perhaps he would have bluntly humiliated Lihen Heaven, but now he did not do so.
Yao Xi's eyelashes flickered, and her bright eyes looked at Ye Futian. She smiled faintly and said, "Although I do not know what the specific meaning is, since Lord Ye said that you won, then you won."
"A win is a win, and a loss is a loss. How can both win in a battle?" Gongsun Zhong of Divine Cloud Valley said. Even if the battle was a draw, it could only be said that neither of them had been defeated. Ye Futian's words were a little ridiculous.
Ye Futian looked at Gongsun Zhong. The Xiao clan wanted to train Xiao Sheng to enter Emperor Xia's Palace and follow Xia Qingyuan, becoming her most trusted right-hand man. Therefore, he had a grudge against Xia Qingyuan and Emperor Xia for him. So what was the reason for Gongsun Zhong's attitude toward him?
Was it because Xiao Sheng wanted to marry his sister Gongsun Ni?
Or was there a reason similar to Xiao Sheng's?
"If one day you can reach Wang Chuan's level, maybe you will understand." Ye Futian did not explain but said bluntly.
This was equivalent to saying that Gongsun Zhong's level was not as high as Wang Chuan's.
Although that day when Wang Chuan brought thousands of swords down the mountain to kill the people of Emperor Li's Realm, many people thought that Wang Chuan was the number one person below Saint Plane in Emperor Xia's Realm, and even Princess Xia Qingyuan might not be able to defeat him. Although Gongsun Zhong also had the reputation of being at the pinnacle below Saint Plane, he was still not as good as Wang Chuan.
But it was one thing to think about it, and Ye Futian saying so in public was not giving him face.
Moreover, Ye Futian said that he and Wang Chuan had both won, which meant that he put the two of them on the same level. Now that he said that Gongsun Zhong's level was not as good as Wang Chuan's, was he also saying that Gongsun Zhong was not as good as Ye Futian?
Gongsun Zhong stared at Ye Futian and said calmly, "Since Wang Chuan has broken into the Saint Plane, my level is naturally not as good as his. What about you?"
"In the battle between Ye Futian and Wang Chuan on the 33rd Layer of Heaven of Lihen Heaven, Ye Futian won." At this time, a voice was heard, causing everyone's hearts to tremble.
Everyone's eyes turned and looked at the person who spoke. It was the peerless figure on the stairs, Xia Qingyuan.
Xia Qingyuan had personally witnessed the battle of the 33rd Layer of Heaven. Who would dare to question her words?
Ye Futian had won that battle.
Everyone's eyes were frozen. Many people guessed that Ye Futian had lost, and some guessed that it was a draw. That was why Ye Futian did not say anything and even said that both of them had won.
No one thought that Ye Futian had won.
If he had won, why had Wang Chuan broken into the Way?
Why had he been in a low mood when he came down the mountain that day and seemed to be thinking?
Why had Ye Futian not said a word to humiliate Lihen Heaven again?
Many people did not understand. Yao Xi looked at Ye Futian with a strange look in her eyes.
"Even if Wang Chuan was defeated, he used defeat to enter the Way, threw away the shackles of his mind, saw through the gains and losses of victory and defeat, attracted the Divine Catastrophe, and entered the Divine Path. That was why Ye Futian said that Wang Chuan had also won, so it was not wrong," Xia Qingyuan continued. Her voice was calm, but every word was a whip to Gongsun Zhong's heart.
Xia Qingyuan continued, "Do you have any more questions?"
Gongsun Zhong's state of mind was shaken. If it was just the news that Ye Futian had defeated Wang Chuan, it would not have affected him. However, a simple conversation today had caused him to fall into a trap. In the end, Xia Qingyuan's announcement of the battle had undoubtedly stung his heart.
Ye Futian had won but was not arrogant. He did not mention the battle, and even said that Wang Chuan had also won. But Gongsun Zhong continued to ask, trying to make Ye Futian admit that he had lost. In front of Xia Qingyuan, the difference between the two of them was obvious.
Many people looked at Gongsun Zhong with some sympathy. Although Xia Qingyuan did not blame him at all, he had dug a trap himself. Xia Qingyuan had simply announced the truth of the battle, and it was enough to stab him.
"Everyone misunderstood that battle and said that Palace Lord Ye had lost, but Mr. Ye did not explain a word. Today, he said that both of them had won. This bearing …" Yao Xi looked at Ye Futian and said with a smile.
"Let's go." Before she could finish, Xia Qingyuan interrupted her and said coldly, causing many to be stunned!
